Depicting a "virtual world" is a distinctive feature of Peking Opera. Its virtuality consists of two aspects: one is virtual movements, and the other virtual settings. Virtual movement refers to imitating actions onstage. For example, riding a horse. Onstage, an actor cannot ride a real horse, but can only hold a whip and imitate the movement of galloping by walking around the stage, turning the body, wielding the whip, and pulling the reins. A virtual setting means creating an imagined environment onstage. For example, rowing a boat. As there is no water or boat on the stage, an actor usually takes an oar and, through actions, makes the audience "see" the rowing of a boat on water 去书内

Effectiveness of Virtual Elements: ◦ These virtual elements enhance the actors' performances. ◦ They help the audience understand and feel the rich connotations of the opera.
